Study Notes
Strength Training
- Strength training focuses on increasing muscular strength and power.
- It involves exercises that challenge the muscles to lift, push, or pull heavier weights or resistance.
- Key methods include: weightlifting, resistance bands, bodyweight exercises.
- Benefits include increased muscle mass, improved bone density, increased metabolism, and enhanced athletic performance.
- Important considerations are proper form, progressive overload, and rest periods.
Flexibility Training
- Flexibility training enhances the range of motion in joints and muscles.
- Achieved by stretching exercises, and improved posture.
- Types include static stretching, dynamic stretching, and PNF (Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation).
- Benefits include reduced risk of injury, improved posture, and enhanced athletic performance
- Importance of warming up and cool down before and after stretches is crucial for maintaining flexibility and preventing injuries.
Periodization of Training
- Periodization is a systematic plan for training over time.
- It involves strategically changing training intensity, volume, and focus to optimize performance.
- Phases include: hypertrophy, strength, and peaking phases.
- Importance of adjusting training strategies based on the specific athletes' goals and performance levels.
- Periodization allows for consistent physical adaptation and prevention of plateaus.
Lifestyle Diseases and Training
- Lifestyle diseases like obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease are linked to inactivity and unhealthy habits.
- Strength, flexibility, and planned training programs help manage and reduce the risk of these diseases.
- Exercise improves metabolic function, reduces blood pressure, and promotes weight management.
- Combining exercise with a balanced diet and stress management is crucial for preventing and mitigating the development of chronic diseases.
